2G SD card will not format in Samsung Digimax 4010 camera

You need to get an SD card. The 4010 works with SD and MMC cards. Your 4GB card is an SDHC card. While it fits into the slot it's electronically incompatible and will not work in the 4010. You need an SD card, 2GB and smaller.

From your description, it sounds like you're formatting the card in your computer and then inserting it into your camera. Camera cards must be formatted in the camera only.

SDHC is an extension of the SD standard that extends the capacity from 2GB to 32GB. It's backward compatible in that devices designed for SDHC cards will also work with SD cards. It does not go the other way---that is, SDHC cards will not work in devices designed for SD cards.

I presume you mean a 2GB card, since a 2MB card might hold one picture.
The Digimax 4010 works with SD cards, not SDHC cards. You may use an SD card. Just make sure it is an SD card, 2GB and smaller. SDHC cards start at 4GB and go up to 32GB but, as stated earlier, will not work in the 4010.

tis logical that sumsung digimax 401 cannot procees a 2gb memory card, use 1 gb will format ok.

Does your camera support SD HC? Anything above a 2gb SD card is concider a HC; so if your camera can't support HC format then you can not use that card.

To rule out a faulty card, format it in the PC using a card reader.

the error message is because the 2gb sd card is not supported (is too big for the camera)
try 1gb sd card and it should be fine

the samsung digimax 4010 camera supports up to 512 Mb cards. 2gb is too big

yes it is 256 Mb maximum
